Transliteration: Abiyno`am
Pronunciation: ah-bee-NO-am
Phonetic Spelling: (ab-ee-no'-am)
Definition: Abinoam

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words אָב (av, meaning "father") and נֹעַם (noam, meaning "pleasantness" or "delight").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Abinoam in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name specific to the Old Testament narrative.

Usage: The name Abinoam means "father of pleasantness" or "my father is delight." It is used in the Bible as a personal name, specifically identifying the father of Barak, a military leader in the Book of Judges.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often carried significant meaning and were sometimes reflective of the character or destiny of the individual or their family. Abinoam, as the father of Barak, is mentioned in the context of the period of the Judges, a time characterized by cycles of Israelite apostasy, oppression, and deliverance. This era was marked by decentralized leadership and frequent conflicts with neighboring peoples.
